บท 385: Persuasion

He nodded to himself grimly as Suhle tugged him toward the cave where they could be out of sight just in case anyone happened into the area. But Lerrin could feel that they were alone, and Suhle agreed. And her hearing was even better than his.

As soon as they were out of the open, he turned with a question in his eyes, and when she smiled, he pulled her into his chest. She came willingly, resting her temple on his chest and wrapping her arms around his waist.
